About this property

Collingham 3.2 miles. Proudly positioned within the grounds of the owner's farm within the sleepy hamlet of Brough, you will find Dovecote Field House Farm. Renovated to a high standard with attractive and contemporary interiors throughout, this former Dovecote makes an excellent setting for two couples or a group of four looking to escape to the Nottinghamshire countryside. As you step inside this warm and restful home, be sure to admire the character and charm of the exposed beams that line the ceilings, before turning on the sleek electric fire and snuggle up to loved ones on one of the cheerful yellow sofas as you scan the Smart TV for all of your favourite shows. Climb the pretty stone steps up to the kitchen/diner where you prepare many delicious meals with the help of the handy electric oven and hob, for all to indulge in as you gather around the table and delight in a tasty bottle of wine. Continue the evening's festivities with drinks out in the private courtyard as you chat amongst friends about your upcoming adventures and raise a glass to making new happy memories with loved ones. Back indoors, a gorgeous super-king-size bedroom served by a bright and contemporary shower room completes the ground floor. On the first floor a sophisticated twin room can be found excluding lots of natural light from the Velux windows and original Dovecote panel that decorate the high-vaulted ceilings. Continue across the and discover a beautiful bathroom with a luxurious corner tub with hand held shower - perfect for relaxing with a long evening soak, following an action-packed adventure exploring the local area. Set back from the hustle and bustle of the city of Lincoln, the neighbouring village of Collingham is home to both a Chinese restaurant and a friendly local pub where you can delight in a more relaxed night out, or pick up ingredients from the local supermarket if a quiet evening indoors is calling your name. Wander along the banks of the pretty River Trent to the town of Newark and see the incredible cascading waters of Newark Trent Waterfall or the imposing architecture of Newark Castle and Gardens, a must see during your stay. Spend the day in the city of Lincoln and enjoy tours of the Museum of Lincolnshire Life, the famous Castle Walls and the magnificent 11th century Cathedral that give Lincoln its city status. Visit Pottergate Arch and the ruins of Lincoln Medieval Bishops' Palace, or explore the great outdoors with an afternoon hiking through Greetwell Hollow Nature Reserve and Whisby Nature Park, where you will be treated to spectacular views. Catch a train to Nottingham or Leicester for a spot of shopping and a hearty lunch in one of the many eateries, before stopping off at landmarks such as the Chinese Bell Tower and Castle Motte. Make the most of precious time with your nearest and dearest on an unforgettable holiday to Dovecote Field House Farm.

Collingham is a charming village tucked away in a rural setting within the Nottinghamshire countryside. Complemented by a quintessential Post Office with newsagents and a well-stocked supermarket, as well as both a pub serving hot meals and a restaurant with takeaway, this town has everything you could possibly wish for. The neighbouring town of Newark-on-Trent and the city of Lincoln make for memorable days out, whilst slightly further afield Nottingham and Leicester are not to be missed.

    Cottage was excellent - the kitchen was well equipped, bed super comfortable and the whole house had everything we needed. We didn't see the owners but they were only next door if we'd needed anything. The only slight negative thing was that I thought the fridge was a little small for 4 people. The steps between the lounge/kitchen are a bit uneven, although that is mentioned in the listing. It was well located for Lincoln (we went twice) to see the Guildhall tour, castle and cathedral. Also visited Belvoir Castle, Burghley House and several National Trust houses. Also the IBCC, Newark and Lincs aviation Centres. It is very rural, though next to the A46, so you would need a car but I would definitely recommend and go back if we wanted to visit that area again. Also, the butchers in Collingham is excellent too.

    The specification is of the highest quality. The main roads are easily accessible which gives access to a number of places in different directions. Highly recommended *****

    It was easy to find and plenty of places to go without travelling too far. The kitchen is well equipped if you decide to cook, we did twice during our stay. The oven was about 10° lower in heat than the one I have at home but all worked well and plenty of utensils stored in the cupboards and drawers. Comfortable beds, plenty of hot water and fluffy towels. All very clean tidy and cosy. We visited; Lincoln Cathedral - absolutely awesome! Belton House - very lovely with very nice grounds. Gainsborough Old Hall - fabulous tudor house well worth a visit very interesting. Southwell Workhouse - impressive lots of information and very well worth a visit.
